Nida Danish
Head of FS
Welcome! My name is Ms. Danish and I am the Head of Foundation Stage this year and the class teacher of FS2I. I have had the privilege of being a part of GEMS CIA since 2019. I initially started teaching 15 years back to finance my MBA degree. I embraced teaching despite of a different educational background and recently completed my post-graduation degree in teaching from Abu Dhabi University. My philosophy is that each child is unique, therefore they learn and thrive at their own pace.
I have a true passion for working with our young learners, helping each child progress in all areas of their development. I strive to create High Performance Learners that nurtures this growth in a positive, fun environment. I look forward to have a positive impact on the children’s growth and mindsets with the support of an amazing team of teachers. I am passionate about teaching and it is such a joy to be here to help and support my students in their journey of high-performance learning!
